Our New Speaker Thinks the Earth is 6,000 Years Old

Copra sanctum! That changes everything! Hmmm. Morning and evening, 2, = one day.

2 = 1 day, times the number of fruit loops on the planet, around 9 billion, divided by two, morning and evening = around 4.5 billion years old.

but the earth is still 6,000 years old right?

Well, this is reassuring.

The new Speaker appears to believe that the Earth is 6,000 years old.

Before arriving in Washington less than a decade ago, House Speaker Mike Johnson, a deeply religious Christian, was a legal crusader associated with a fringe evangelical movement called “young Earth creationism,” based on a literal reading of the Bible’s Book of Genesis that posits the Earth is only several thousand years old.​

​

In the mere hours since Johnson was elected speaker Wednesday, he hadn’t had to address his views on creationism and evolution. But his close ties to a leader of the creationist movement and his past legal work — on behalf of the Ark Encounter creationist theme park, where children can learn that dinosaurs were passengers on Noah’s Ark — seem to suggest that he’s also personally aligned with these beliefs.​

“The Ark Encounter is one way to bring people to this recognition of the truth, that what we read in the Bible are actual historical events,” Johnson said in a 2021 interview with Ark Encounter founder Ken Ham while guest-hosting the radio showof Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, an evangelical activist group.​

An ark replica with dinosaurs "is one way to bring people to this recognition ... that what we read in the Bible are actual historical events,” Mike Johnson said.

I think you're confused. He said the previous Speaker is 6000 years old.

I was being facetious. Damn.

The "wild beasts of the field" must start drooling when they see you coming from a mile away.
